YouTube Headquarters Shooting: Stars React to Tragic Incident

Now that we know more about what started this and how it was allowed to happen.

No.

I donā€™t have any other answer.

It seems that YouTubeā€™s decisions to ā€œDe-Monitizeā€ the shooterā€™s videos was the root cause of the incident. When you touch on someoneā€™s passion, and from what Iā€™ve read this woman was passionate, you need to tread lightly. Most people wonā€™t be upset if you simply disagree with them, but when you take money out of their pockets ā€¦ it gets heated in a hurry.

With millions of people using YouTube and who knows how many be ā€œDe-Monitizedā€ ( Do not like word. ) it will be surprising that something similar to this does not happen again, maybe multiple times.

Way to burst my bubbleā€¦ but I agree with all that you said. Money is a strong motivator.

Iā€™d just like to go a week or so without any of these terrible things happening. (Iā€™d really like to go forever, but Iā€™ll take what I can get at this point.)

Iā€™ve just had enough (bad) experiences to guide my responses into the cynical territories more often than not.

The more technology advances and connects us faster and farther the more we see how the world really is, was, and will be unfortunately. I turned all my news feeds off so now Iā€™m not bombarded 24/7 with the horrors of life and politics.

If youā€™re afraid of everyone, maybe use that doorbell camera and see whoā€™s knocking instead of opening the door. And seriously, what burglar knocks on the door?

Sadly, around here, quite a few.

All the more reason to use that camera.

CNN affiliate WDIV

Thatā€™s our local NBC station. Do CNN and NBC belong to the same group?

Sadly, I tend to forget I have a camera doorbell because so few people actually use the damn thing (also, doesnā€™t help the battery in the thing actually dies during the 20-30% range now), they just want to knock first.

No, but CNN does work with local stations as feeders for news so they would credit them like an affiliate.

We donā€™t need a door camera, we have a side window next to the door and bay windows. Can easily see whoever it is that rang the doorbell.

A burglar who wants to find out if anyone is home at the house he is planning to burgle?

TBF, this homeowner was following the advice of then-Vice President Joe Biden:
ā€œ[Y]ou want to keep someone away from your house, just fire the shotgun through the door.ā€

You canā€™t get away with anything forever.

Iā€™ve gotta say, after the fact just doesnā€™t seem like justiceā€¦ Iā€™d like to know what new evidence turned the minds of the jurors.

More testimony from other victims. They werenā€™t allowed in the previous trial, but this Judge ruled differently.

It will be appealed after sentencing, could take up to 2 years on appeal. Cosby is 80 and his health is failing, any sentence will likely result in him dying in jail, if not during the appeal process.

Itā€™s a sad deal all around.
